CALIFORNIA

WELL WE WERE 1O MILES INTO CALIFORNIA WHEN TERRY GOT THE FINGER, WELL REALLY IT WAS 3 FINGERS.  I WAS  READING AND AM NOT REALLY SURE WHAT HAPPENED, BUT THE MIDDLE AGED LADY BESIDE US GAVE TERRY THE FINGER AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF US FLASHED TERRY THE PIECE SIGN AT THE SAME TIME .  THE LADY, AND I USE THAT TERM LOOSLY, WAS APPARENTLY THE PROBLEM BUT THE GUY IN FRONT OF US THOUGHT WE WERE BLARING OUR HORN AT HIM BUT SHE WAS BLOWING HER HORN AT TERRY..   REALLY, SHE IS THE FIRST CRANKY PERSON WE HAVE MET  SO FAR..NOT BAD   ....WHATEVER, WHICHEVER....I JUST KNOW I DIDN'T GET THE FINGER FROM ANYONE...  I AM STILL FEELING THE LOVE    LOL  . THE HIGHWAYS HERE IN CALIFORNIA SO FAR HAVE BEEN A SURPRISE...VERY , VERY POOR AND DIRTY.  DRIVING THRU THE MAHAVE DESERT THIS TIME WAS SO DIFFERENT FROM THE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE.  THE TEMP TODAY WAS 62..LAST TIME WE DID THE DRIVE IT WAS 110 AND CARS WERE DROPPING LIKE FLIES.  WE HAD SOME SHOWERS TODAY  , OH WHAT A WELCOME CHANGE FROM THE HEATWAVE.  WELL WE ARE HEADING TO YOSEMITE PARK TODAY BUT WE STRUCK RENO OFF OUR LIST.  SOMETHING BIG MUST BE GOING ON  AS IT WAS DIFFICULT TO GET A ROOM FILLING OUR REQUIREMENTS UNLESS WE WANTED TO SPEND AROUND $400.00  A NIGHT !!!  SINCE WE HAVE BEEN TO SAN FRANCISCO BEFORE WE ALSO STRUCK THAT OFF OUR LIST ( I WOULD LOVE TO GO BACK AND SPEND A FEW DAYS THERE, BUT TERRY COULD CARE LESS....ANYONE INTERESTED !!).     SO WE PLAN ON BEING IN SANTA ROSA TONIGHT AND WHO KNOWS WHERE NEXT.  WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SOME VERY SERIOUS , DANGEROUS ISSUES COMING UP, BUT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.......HOPE ALL IS WELL AT HOME.
